Built For Natural Landscape Performance
Global Syn-Turf (GST) Riviera Monterey-50 is a highly versatile, mid-weight artificial grass engineered for light-to-medium traffic applications. Because it balances a plush 1.58-inch pile height with a budget-friendly 50-ounce face weight, it is optimized for specific residential and light commercial uses. Ideal for homeowners wanting a neat, "freshly mowed" look. The M-shaped blades reduce unnatural plastic sheen in direct sunlight. The 1.58-inch height makes scooping pet waste easy. It is highly compatible with antimicrobial infills for household dogs. Its lighter weight makes it easy to cut, shape, and install over hardscapes without adding dangerous structural loads to balconies. Safe for children's play areas because it is non-toxic, lead-free, and stays much cooler than concrete or asphalt.
- Natural multi-tone appearance
- Soft realistic blade structure
- Drainage-friendly construction

Recommended Applications
The Global Syn-Turf (GST) Riviera Monterey-50 is specifically engineered for light-to-medium traffic applications where achieving a realistic, freshly-cut aesthetic is the priority. Because it balances a 1.58-inch pile height with a cost-effective 50-ounce face weight, it is utilized across several residential and light commercial projects. Provides a pristine, uniform green look for homeowners looking to eliminate watering, mowing, and fertilizing. Creates a soft, mud-free area for family gatherings, patio extensions, and outdoor lounging. Ideal for cutting into narrow strips to place between concrete driveways, walkway pavers, or pool stone borders. Its lighter face weight makes it easy to glue or tape down over existing concrete or wood decking without overloading structural weight limits. Serves well as a backyard dog run for small-to-medium pets, as the blade height allows for quick solid waste cleanup.
